Public Input Requested on Biking & Walking Trail

As part of its efforts to provide greater opportunities for active transportation in Orange County, OCTA is studying the development of a biking and walking trail connection along the former Pacific Electric Right-of-Way corridor in Garden Grove and Santa Ana. Called OC Connect, the project creates a 4-mile biking and walking trail connection between the downtown areas of Garden Grove and Santa Ana as well as to the Santa Ana River Trail and the countywide 66-mile OC Loop bikeway.

This project would improve the transportation network along the corridor and provide a well-connected active transportation route.

OCTA incorporated the first round of community feedback into its preliminary trail design and shared it at a meeting and a webinar. Those who want to provide additional input can complete a survey by October 31 for a chance to win one of two $50 gift cards.
